I've eaten here a few times and it's always been a great experience Great atmosphere and very generous portions of freshly made genuinely delicious food. The staff a great, welcoming and friendly. This time I decided to order for takeaway, as we didn't have time to go out. We were pleasantly surprised again, the portions were great with the pasta and the stone baked pizza was great too. All freshly made and came with full accompaniments, homemade garlic bread with the pastas and the pizza had side salad and garlic bread. They always go out of their way to please. I would definitely recommend this restaurant, it even has parking next to it.

The highlight was the ice cream. The pizza was decent. Service very friendly. Old fashioned cafe vibe. However I was the only one in there on a wet Wednesday evening so hard to give marks for a good atmosphere!

Having seen this little gem many times in the passing, tried for the first time tonight and was not disappointed! Welcomed by a nice waitress into the little quirky restaurant with exceptional food to follow! The bruschetta and garlic mushrooms were exceptional as were the risotto and carbonara that followed. Reasonably priced and will definitely be back.

Went based on other reviews as meant to be homely. The worst meal I’ve had since moving to Paisley. The pizza base was defiantly frozen as was the chicken on top and in pasta. The only plus side was the guy that served us. Zambretto and Genova will make this place close. Overpriced and really poor, cannot recommend at all which is unfortunate when you want small businesses to do well

First visit to this small Italian restaurant in Paisley and it will not be the last! Tiny inside, but homely. We had the pre-theatre menu at £15.95 for 2 courses and £19.95 for 3 courses. We both had the minestrone soup served with garlic bread which was delicious! Mains were Carbonara and and Arabiata which were served piping hot and accompanied with cheese garlic bread, portions were very generous and again, delicious. After polishing off a bottle of the house red, we ordered the tiramisu which was honestly divine!! Shame it was so quiet because this little gem deserves to be busy all the time. We will definitely be back soon!

Gave this place a visit as we had drove by a few times - and a few of our regular spots were fully booked for a last minute lunch. Was welcomed - waiter was lovely - just the one guy out on the floor and his service was really nice - checked up on us regularly and just generally friendly. However the food was really basic stuff - flavourless or cheap tasting - nice big portions - but both sauces for the rigatoni pasta and carbonara tasted like packet sauces. And both starts - funghi al forno and mozzarella and carroza were piping roasting hot but with no real flavour to them. Garlic bread was nice and chips were ok. There wasn’t much difference between the lunch deal - 2 courses for 14.95 - or starter and main for £17 seperate - so we just ordered off the normal menu - however for the quality of what you get it’s overpriced - and as I say the service was lovely and I always tip - however decided not to when I seen we had been charged £4 per pint of coke - which my partner heard the can of juice used for each get opened for. I really want wee independent places like this to do well, it had some character and the decor was a bit old fashioned - service was lovely - but considering we spent £43 on stuff I’m confident I could have made better in the house when our first choices are doing 2 courses for a tenner and much better quality, I wouldn’t return.

I went to La Dolce Vita which is a wee Italian restaurant in Paisley, all by myself to spend some of my time. I had warm welcome and got a table. Ordered Rigatoni ai Funghi although I am not sure how it’s gonna be but got few suggestions from ladies who are about to leave. Good interior, music Ok, they Served the dish in time with Parmesan cheese and can’t forget garlic bread as complimentary which I got. Totally loved the dish and had delightful dinner with the touch of rose wine. Recommended to satisfy our Italian tastebuds sometimes.

This place is terribly disappointing, my boyfriend and I came in as everywhere else was full, surprised to find it empty. The food that we received was extremely tasteless, greasy, cold and the decor is too much/very tacky (though not a big issue). The toilet facilities were dirty and I found the place to be quite cold. It did not feel welcoming and the food was atrocious, won’t be visiting again, though I cannot fault the service. A thing I found interesting when searching the reviews was to see the replies that people were getting, very unpleasant and unprofessional. Needs a revamp and a food improvement. I felt horribly ill after eating. And owner claims it’s a fake review? I’m literally a student who came to eat when everywhere else was full, can’t accept criticism clearly, needs to say that I’m their competitor? No respect for that

Walked by this place hundreds of times over the years and over looked it. Took my grandson in for dinner and was pleasantly surprised. We were a little early for opening time but the staff let us in anyway and took us straight to a table. While they were setting up they still sat us at a table and proceeded to serve our drinks while looking over our menu. I must say the meals were lovely and good size portions. We both enjoyed them. The staff was friendly and even interacted with us both. Even though we spent the best part of 2 hours there they made our dessert to go. I’ve been back since my first time and my experience hasn’t change from my first visit. I would highly recommend that whoever reads this should pop in and give this restaurant a try I’m sure you would enjoy it as much as I have. I have been back since with different company and they enjoyed it also.

We visited La Dolce Vita for dinner ahead of meeting up with friends for a night out. It's a small beautiful restaurant, as though it's been lifted straight out of a small Italian town and put into Paisley - lovely ambience, quaint decor and attentive, friendly staff. The food was delicious - lovely bruschetta and hearty minestrone to start, generous portions for the mains - nice wine and good beer. More than anything, it's the staff who make it. Very friendly and attentive, it works so well in the small restaurant as you feel very at home. I would highly recommend this place and it's family/child friendly also. It was quiet when we arrived, early evening but the restaurant is small so I am not sure if it would be better to book a table if you plan to visit at a busier time.

I don't normally leave reviews of any detail, however this place is the exception. I am fed up of pretentious, over priced, average (at best) food served at many restaurants.La Dolce Vita has been a very welcome exception. I turned up 40 minutes later than my booking time (due to Renfrewshire Cabs fault) half expecting on a Friday night to have our table taken by someone else. They had kept it for us - mind you they were surprisingly quiet. The house wine was pretty good. The food was outstanding. Minestrone soup couldn't have been better. Calamari of equal quality. We both had two chicken dishes as mains - both quite different but both absolutely lovely. Service and ambience was just what we needed after a weeks work. Looking forward to the next visit.

We ordered bruschetta and calamari for starters and both were tasty and good sized portions. We then followed up with two pasta dishes which were both very nice.

I asked for the Chicken and Broccoli Pasta. It arrived with courgettes and peas instead of the said broccoli! It tasted ok but I did mention at the end of the meal and was advised the chef would be advised. Anything off the cost???? Nothing not even a sorry! Really nobody was impressed and also we think the house wine my have been watered down! Ordered a bottle next to get rid of the taste. Would we return? Absolutely not!

Visited this restaurant as a "pot luck" choice whilst making an overnight stop in Paisley on the way home from a week on Skye. It doesn't look much from the outside and the entrance area was very cluttered so we almost walked away. I'm so pleased we didn't as the place turned out to be a real treat. The actual dining room is really nice and cosy, only 5 tables so as a walk in we were lucky to get the last one. The menu is varied and my wife had a chicken & leek soup starter while I chose a ham, cheese & mushroom crepe. Both portions were huge, with a side salad and cheesy garlic bread with the crepe. The food was very hot, tasty and well cooked.We had a spaghetti puttanesca and a chicken ham & pea risotto mains. Again portions were large and the food cooked really well. A group on the next table said they come regularly but never have starters because of the big portions. That's probably good advice if you want dessert!Prices at the restaurant are very reasonable, including beer (bottled only) and wine.The waitress was lovely, friendly and helpful. We had plenty of time between courses and our experience was really enjoyable.I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants well presented rustic Italian food presented with a smile.

A group of us who were visiting Paisley came to this restaurant for a quick dinner before going out. Big mistake. I ordered a pizza, and although it was quick to arrive, it was already pretty cold and it was the most disgusting pizza I've ever tasted. It was chewy and the base was incredibly soggy. I could barely finish a slice before allowing the waiter to take my plate away.The manager had been told that I had hardly touched my pizza and when we went over to pay, I started getting interrogated as to why I did not eat it. I was so keen to get out of there so just paid the (relatively cheap) cost of the pizza and left. Felt sick for a while afterwards. There are much better Italian restaurants in Paisley and I would not recommend this one.

I brought my son here recently for an early dinner, I had the chicken pepe which came with garlic bread, potatoes and veg'. the veg' didn't look appealing but was fresh and tasty nonetheless, my boys pizza wasn't a traditional thin base but a deep one that tasted more like a chain pizza restaurant base that was a little disappointing. Friendly, swift service and a nice atmosphere marred only by a drunk guy (5PM) swearing away. I've been before and will go again.

Visited on a Friday night at 8.45 pm, not one customer in the place. And after eating I understand why. Food you only see on Ramsay's kitchen nightmares. Service was fine but the food has bombed since me last visit 3 years ago. On my next visit to Paisley I will dine somewhere else. A great shame.

A nice little restaurant. Not many frills and the food is relatively basic, but it's tasty and very reasonably priced. Always friendly too. Recommended.

The food is acceptable however we were seated at a table at the entrance area and not the main room of the restaurant. There was no ambience or atmosphere whatsoever. The restaurant needs to be tidied up and better presented to its customers. We had to ask for cutlery. We had to request ice to put in our wine as it was not properly chilled and the waiting staff were having some sort of disagreement about their respective roles.The prices are not top notch but not cheap either. I live in the locale but had never eaten here. I don't think i will again.

Aye here recently with family. I've been to Italy a few times so I have plenty of experience of eating Italian food in Italy. We had garlic bread but couldn't really taste the garlic. Pizza looked great but the base was a bit chewy. Perhaps the dough had been frozen then defrosted. The ragu sauce in the spag Bol was excellent. Better than what I've had in other local restaurants but the spaghetti was a little over cooked. Portion sizes were very good, perhaps a tad too much but you won't leave feeling hungry. Service was as good as you will ever get at any restaurant. The surroundings were typical of a genuine Italian restaurant I would say the food needs a wee bit tidying up. Price wise reasonable.

My husband and myself decided to go to Dolce Vita as hadn't been for a long time, it certainly will not be long before we return . I had forgotten how charming this restaurant was and still is. The staff were very friendly and attentive but not intrusive very knowledgeable about anything we asked could certainly not fault anything about the service it was first class. The food was outstanding portion sizes were huge the starters would have been enough for a main meal , our main meals were delicious my husband had risotto and I had the lasagne we could not finish our meals so our server Gillian boxed it for us to take home which was really nice. Well done it was outstanding Thank you for terrific night. Karen and Thomas McLaughlin

I’ve been visiting the Junction Cafe since 2015. I’d booked a table for a light lunch with my wife (recommended to avoid any wait/disappointment). Super warm welcome from Joe and David. Food and coffee was excellent 👍 … A shout out to Ivan in the kitchen. A selection of takeaway cakes for afternoon coffee with friends, who all commented on how super yummy 😋 they were…👍
